                              of michigan

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, June 15, 2015

  Mr. WALBERG. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in solemn memory of my friend 
David Holden who went to be with the Lord on June 8, 2015.
  Dave was a great family man and role model in our community.
  He was an active leader in the Saline Area Schools, serving as 
President and Vice President of the Board of Education. His three 
sons--Dylan, Derek, and Reed--all graduated from Saline High School.
  Dave also volunteered his time as a basketball and baseball coach in 
the area for 16 years.
  He truly understood the meaning of civic duty, as he reminded us 
through his example day in and day out.
  The countless hours he spent to better our community, especially in 
the area of education, will not be forgotten.
  The citizens of Saline and Washtenaw County are fortunate to have had 
a man of Dave's character and dedication as a leader in our community. 
He will be greatly missed.
  On behalf of this Congress, I offer our deepest sympathies to his 
wife, Raye, his three sons, and his extended family and friends. Our 
heartfelt prayers are with them during this difficult time.

                          ____________________
